Welcome friends,
Welcome to another journey of authoring hope and this journey today is for planting possibilities with the new moon.
As always we'll take a little time to arrive with a short meditation then I'll offer up three journaling prompts and then we'll finish with another little guided meditation.
So take your time to gather whatever you may need with which to write and to rest and reflect and we'll enjoy taking our time to settle and close the eyes to let the body rest to feel supported perhaps to allow the mind to settle letting any busy thoughts drift away the time of new moon can invite a pause,
A quiet a darkness in which we may find rest but also that we can imagine as like soil,
Dark,
Rich,
Nourishing so as we settle here we may imagine the earth somewhere beneath us and the soil within which seeds may grow we may allow this time of the darkness of the new moon to hold us gently as we consider what seeds we may wish to plant and it is with this wonderful idea and energy of possibility that I invite you to take your time,
You can take a little stretch or movement without thinking too much about it I offer you our first journaling prompt what desire or idea is whispering for space right now I will give you three quiet minutes to write with that prompt what desire or idea is whispering for space right now what desire or idea is whispering for space right now as we journey on to our next prompt if you feel yourself in flow you don't have to stop writing you can always write these down and come back to them later so don't let me interrupt you if you're still working on the first but if you would like number two the prompt is what beliefs or habits feel ready to be nourished what beliefs or habits feel ready to be nourished and we'll come to the third and final of our prompts under the new moon if anything were possible what would you begin as we come to the end of our journaling and our writing you can finish up the sentence you're on or again you can keep writing if you feel in flow you can just press pause on me and you can keep writing don't let me interrupt you if you want to keep writing but if you feel ready to put down your pen we'll come to a gentle closing meditation on this special time of new moon and it may be the new moon is in the sky right now it might be something that's on its way or you might just feel connected to that energy of possibility of planting seeds in the dark earth so maybe it just feels like a new moon time that you wish to embrace whatever our journey here we will once more close the eyes perhaps visualizing the deep dark nourishing earth and see yourself planting tiny seeds into the soil of possibility beneath that new moon sky the stars are still shining and as you plant your tiny seeds into the soil you can name them are these seeds called hope is there a seed called clarity or ease or joy place the seeds in the earth with love and cover them with a hand a little soil and trust the new moon invites for us patience compassion and may what has been planted here in darkness grow towards light in its own time my dear ones if you feel ready you can take a little stretch a few deeper breaths as we gently open our eyes and return to the room thank you so much for joining me on another journey of authoring hope i run live sessions of authoring hope every month so you can join me to write more with magic and love or find a little magic with every phase of the moon thank you so much for joining me farewell for now
